I don't believe this is a novelization of an episode per se but a novel intended to mimic a X-Files episode for those that just couldn't get enough of the show. The problem with this kind of novel is what can you do? We all know the beloved protagonists are going to survive intact, so no suspense there, and we just don't care enough about all the red shirts to give a damn. We already know some of the nefarious are going to get their just deserts while others will slink away to pester the FBI in a future episode. What you are left to play with, if you are going to aspire to art instead of just entertainment, is pure weirdness and the twist(s). Shucking as many X-Files tropes as possible is also another angle. The problem is, as you aspire to art you are going to piss off the hard core X-Files fan who just wants a novelized teleplay of a "typical" X-Files episode. They are here to be entertained, not enlightened.
The ever capable Mr. Grant chooses to take the somewhat low road here and gives us what we want in a modestly literate manner (remember there's still that mortgage payment looming). There is nothing surprising here, just a bit of fun with a secret government black-ops experiment gone very bad. There will be conspirators, friends, traitors, and the ever-clueless, but Scully and Mulder will sort it out before the body count gets too high.
Grant has the advantage of two already well developed characters to start with so he doesn't have to spend a lot of time getting us to know and like them. What he must do however, is not screw-up our internal picture of the two dauntless paranormal G-men, which he doesn't. Where he could have done a little more inspiring job is with the twists. They are there but they are not all that startling when they arrive (I had figured out a key characteristic of the "goblins" but not the precise identity, pretty early on so the main twist didn't work for me).
I was a big fan of the show back when I used to watch television and films more than rarely so I enjoyed the novel as a decent entertainment. ( )
